MSM (MethylSulfonylMethane) is pure organic sulfur known as DMSO2 (Dimethylsulfone), which is found in all plants and tissues—considered to be nature’s beauty mineral due to it’s the ability to enhance collagen bundles and restore the foundation for healthy skin. MSM is necessary to both collagen and keratin, where it can help to keep the skin smooth and youthful, and the hair glossy and lustrous. MSM is well-known as a building block for collagen and connective tissues, making it an excellent approach to anti-aging skincare. MSM can be utilized in any of your skincare products that are geared toward anti-aging and firming treatments, as well as in your massage/body lotions and creams geared toward pain-relieving treatments. MSM is 34% sulfur by weight. Its effectiveness indicates sulfur plays a critical role in detoxification, and also inflammatory conditions. For detoxification, sulfur is one of the most important antioxidants that your body produces: glutathione. Without sulfur, glutathione cannot work. So MSM is not antioxidant itself, part of the MSM’s action is to improve your body’s ability to make its own antioxidants. An “organic” form sulfur, ideal for cosmetic use.
